The North Face Summit Chamlang Futurelight Jacket

Designed in collaboration with The North Face® athletes, the 100% recycled Summit Chamlang FUTURELIGHT™ Jacket delivers the highest level of protection for high-alpine expeditions in challenging conditions. This three-layer seam-sealed shell features a whole host of innovative features, such as the helmet-compatible hood, harness-compatible hand pockets, and clever articulated patterning for an exceptional fit and full freedom of movement. Seamless shoulders reduce the chance of chafing and discomfort when carrying a backpack. And thanks to laser-cut perforations that allow air to circulate, the chin guard and collar lining deliver welcome warmth without skimping on breathability. Summit Series™ layers all work together for optimum performance in terms of breathability, insulation, weather resistance and moisture management.
